Removing categories

hidden_details category

The hidden_details category is being removed from the Base Employee schema.

Updates to the data aggregation pipeline now ensure that all necessary information is properly populated in the standard schema fields. As a result, the separate hidden_details identifier has become redundant.

Removed fields

Data field	Data type
hidden_details	Array of objects
hidden_details.hidden_collection	String

Legacy categories

The following legacy categories with nested fields are being removed from all future Base Employee dumps and the dataset schema, as they are no longer actively updated. However, the data is stored in our database and can be requested on demand.

Job title classification updates

Changes

We are improving our job title classification system with refined department and management level categories.

C-Level migration: department → management_level

• The "C-Suite" department has been eliminated (previously 2.3M records).

• C-Level executives are now classified by their functional department (e.g., CFO → Finance & Accounting, CTO → Engineering and Technical), with "C-Level" assigned as their management level.

Reduced "Other" classifications

• The "Other" department has dropped from 8.9M to 2.1M records (76% reduction) as significantly more job titles are now accurately categorized into specific departments.

New category: "General Management"

• A new "General Management" department has been added to capture leadership roles that span multiple functions (4.5M records).
